I had a clogged drain on the sink in my wife's bathroom last night. I took the trap off(all chromed lined metal, rusty). Cleared what ever my son washed done it, and put back together.
All the joints were leaking.[:(!]
Well, all the metal rings had calcium & rust so I took everything all apart and soaked in CLR. I put them all back together today, leaking...[:(!]
I go to Ace today & get an entire replacement for all the pipes & get all PVC.
I'm working on tightening the drop tube nut & I spin the drain tube in the porcelain sink.
Now, I have to take the drain out of the sink, clean all the old plumbers putty off the drain tube, put new putty on and reinstall.
Put everything back together....F'in wall pipe is leaking were it's going into the galvanized metal pipe on the wall.
A trip back to Ace and I get a rubber washer/ring to seal the plastic pipe to the metal pipe.
10min clean-out turned into a 2 day production. Murphy's law at its best.[:D]0 -
